It pays equally \Veil in the produc· tion of milk. Bowman cows are sleek and healthy-fed only t h e choicest of green grasses and rich, golden grain; protect· ed from long exposure to hot summer suns and the rigors of winter weather. As a re· suit Bowman's Milk is extra good to begin with. And, due to our extra care at every step, none of that extra-goodness is lost! Bowman's Milk is a fullcream milk-, pasteurized as an extra assurance of purity. It is a rich milk, a fresh milk, and above all, a miik unmistakably superior in flavor. Order a bottle to· day. Ask your family to give it the "taste test." It is sure to win t h e i r enthusiastic approval.
